I think you are mistaken about either the effect of the drawtext options or
the semantic of CSS properties.

The "box" that drawtext draws around the text is filled, it corresponds to
the "background" CSS property, and adding border in it corresponds to what
CSS calls "padding". What CSS calls "border" is a frame, not filled.

In this case again you are mistaken about CSS properties: the borderw option
does not correspond to font-weight, it corresponds to the effect usually
called outline, which does not exist in standard CSS. The equivalent of
font-weight is achieved by selecting a font file with a bold face.
